Police will not come to your house and charge you. You might be summonsed but not charged, there is a huge difference between the two. For this type of criminal act there is a requirement for the perpetrator to attend the custody area of a police station. Now they could have invited there I guess, most unlikely and most unusual, because upon an invitation the suspect is free to leave at any time.

Arresting any suspect is the usual way to proceed. This way the suspect will go through a custody procedure and then be interviewed in the presence of a legal representation should they choose. In this case the suspect would have had the opportunity to explain the reasoning behind his actions and the fact he is terminally ill. This mitigation could well assist the CPS in deciding whether or not it was in the public’s interest to charge the suspect or just caution them or even NFA the matter.

The village bobby appeal always makes me laugh. Imagine being at home when your young one walks in, tears streaming down their face because a police officer clipped his ear for some minor misdemeanor. There would be outrage so let’s get rid of this village copper love affair. It will not work with the righteous population of the UK today.

I know that if I saw a police officer ignore a person who exposed themselves to any member of the public then that would infuriate me more than seeing them dealing with the filthy minded person on the level they deserved. In the case we speak of the alleged victim of police brutality did not assist in any way at all and therefore, as I have said previously, he was a victim of his own stupidity.
Sounds like hanging would be too good for him.
